Tottenham - 2-1 winners on Teesside earlier in the campaign - have five players who are expected to miss Saturday’s game.

England left-back Danny Rose has a knee problem and will see a specialist on Monday, while Jan Vertonghen (ankle), Erik Lamela (hip), Georges-Kevin Nkoudou (knee) and Kieran Trippier (hip) are also out.

Spurs goalkeeper Hugo Lloris is available again however after he sat out Tuesday’s draw at Sunderland due to illness.
